Good day, My /var is full and I can't figure out how to release [mis]used space. I suspected an open accounting file because a few weeks ago I started moving the accounting, logs & email files over to /usr and just linking them from /var... However, I am unsure how to regain the space. fsck docs(Appendix A) imply that to clean the file the file system has to be unmounted. Is this correct? Please advise an optimal solution.
